"The Depot Cafe is a cool spot with a lot of atmospheric eye candy to check out while you're waiting...to order...to get your food...to get a refill. I tried to warn my friends when we walked in and I saw them make a beeline to the very furthest, most out of the way darkened booth in the place. I noticed right away that there was only one server on duty. Table selection is very important in a busy restaurant...choosing an out of sight, out of mind dead-end booth, well, that's akin to intentionally falling into an oubliette. You remember the 1986 film Labyrinth? Our protagonist, Sarah, ended up in an oubliette in the Labyrinth. Impromptu history lesson: Victims in oubliettes were often left to starve and dehydrate to death...yikes! So, choose where you sit wisely! Anyway, service was friendly enough and our server certainly wasn't trying to ignore us. She was working hard to take and get out orders and everything in-between...we were just in the oubliette. Don't sit there, okay? The food was just average for fish chips. The home cut fries were undercooked and could have used more time in the fryer. Based on the overall reviews, I'm gonna say this was probably just an off night for the restaurant. My tip if you're going to dine here: Sit at the counter...stay out of the oubliette, no matter what the Goblin King Jareth tells you!"
